no just kidding. ok, another question @swordx. So how did you get so you could have your character move across different backgrounds. Does it sidescroll like mario, or change when reaching a certain area. And, what code allows you to do that. Sorry about all the questions, i'm a pretty much a beginner at this and learn by example.

I'm not sure how to make it scroll...Sooooo I decided to make it more like the older Zelda games! When you get to a certain point, it loads the next area. I generally did this with sprites, but I used the variables' value in the town, that way I could have it more open.

@swordx
are you almost done with your zelda like game, or are you busy with another game. Also, wasn't the first zelda game a basic made?

My Zelda-like game has about 2000 lines of coding. The first area (forest + temple + town) is near completion. The forest itself is done, but the town and dungeon need a little more time. Don't expect any of my games to be released until this upcoming Summer/Fall. My Spring Break starts this weekend, so I'll program a lot during that time.

I can not wait for your Zelda-like game! How many dungeons will there be in it?

SORRY FOR DOUBLE POSTING! I didn't mean too...

I'm not sure, so I'll go with three. However, there WILL be an update that adds an area that will (hopefully) be ALMOST EXACTLY like a Zelda, except with its own story and the dungeon being revamped.

There are more 2D games. Sorry, but Minish Cap is incorrect. I guess you'll find out once I release the game and the update! I may be a little bit more open about the game...I want at least one surprise.

Nintendo does that for a good reason: They don't want to make empty promises, which is something that I've done with Dungeon Adventure.

@bluerobin : I have a funny ideal for the story for Battlewood. I decided to tell the board, cause it is too wordy for Snapnotes.

The world of Battlewood only has one monster origanaly, a lonly Lich named Charlie. Charlie was a Level 49 Lich, but is traped by a door which only alowes someone through who's level is 50 or above. So, Charlie, wishing for friends, casted a spell which turns Copper Pieces into monsters. Since CPs are the only form of monie on Battlewood, eveyone paniced.

Enter the player charater, a lone archer forced into slaying monsters and turning them back into CP for the good of the Battlewood ecomidy.

@sterica ... okaaay. You might want to work on spelling or typing slower though . I think I will take ideas from all contributers and I cannot promise anyone that I will use everything in their stories. But, great idea! keep 'em comin'! Right now on prit computer I am trashing my original very boring story and adding a new one, along with more dialogue. It will be based on all of your ideas. And don't be scared to go crazy with this, Heck, he could get kicked by a purple monkey and fly to space where he fights annpying pop-tart kittins! [pauses] Anyways, some other projects that I am working on include a Virtual Glitter program (Don't ask) and a custom keyboard (Well a number keyboard. I got lazy DONT JUDGE ME). Other than petit computer, I am working on a PC creeper tower defense game and an Os called micrOS. micrOS will be kind of like a dock on the mac computers.

And I have a question. how do I load a file using a string variable?? (Oh yeah, I'm making a MEM hacking program).

I am on Petit computer right now, just finishing... CincOS! I will need 10-15 minutes, and I will upload the files (THE ACTUALL LINK THIS TIME) for you all. I Hate Windows b/c I can't get ptcutiluties to work correctly so I will (AGAIN...) Upload the raw files for it. One major addition for CincOS is the 2nd Gui/Sprite based Desktop! Currently, there are 4 Different OS' inside Cincos Platinum... Sound like too much? Ahh, anyway, slide the Stylus all the way to the right side of the touch screen to activate the timer. If the timer is greater than... I think it was 2 seconds... and your stylus is still on the side, it will take you to the 2nd GUI/Sprite Desktop. Also, It requires that you do the setup again to add your username for the system to use when I add games compatible with CincOS. Press and hold down "R" Untill the verrrrrrryyyyy end of the boot sequence. Keep it pressed untill it says "Loading Extentions...". Then tap it 2 times (The "R" Button) and it will ask you all the stuff. One other way to do it is to go to the desktop>M-Tool (Multi-Tool)>Terminal ("Y" Button)>Type "SUDO CINCOS-CONFIG". Sorry for the long post! Link will be up in a few min.

@justlink I mean load something using a string instead of a specific file name. I want to make it so the user enters a string via INPUT and it loads the file. Thanks anyway.

INPUT "What is the name of the file to load";LOAD$
LOAD "MEM:"+LOAD$
IF !RESULT THEN GOTO @(Whatever)

OK Sorry Everyone for the (AGAIN!) minor inconvenience, but Go to "http://www.mediafire.com/" then search for a folder called "New CincOS". There you should find all the files for it. Also one more warning for CincOS, I reccomend, unless you like hearing the click of the keyboard while typing, That you leave it on silent mode. Check the icon in the top left corner in the status bar "The bar that displays your username as well" and make sure it's on silent. Thanks!
